well my living room looks like santa exploded in it. Now the hard part is getting rid of all the boxes and tissue paper and ribbons that the cats are so enthralled with. I swear i keep so much "garbage" around the house for their amusement. lol
it was a good Christmas even though i worked today. My dad dressed up as Santa (beard and everything) and brought me hot cocoa at work. Presents and games with the inlaws this evening was a lot of fun. all the gifts went over really well. I got some very eclectic and interesting clothes including an alpaca sweater and a hat and coat from Nepal. the coat is the strangest yellow/green/black acid wash color with handpainted designs and it's almost ugly... but so interesting that i love it. (the description makes it sound horrid but it's really not that bad)
I love giving presents so much i wish i could afford to do it all year. But i get to do it all over again with my family on Saturday. I'm still really bummed out that my sister probably won't be able to make it over from Seattle this weekend but the driving conditions are bad and i understand. It's just the first Holiday that we haven't all been together as a family EVER but we're planning on heading over there for new years so i'll get my time with my Monkey.
gonna go pass out now.
